Mang Tootz Food House is a famous Philippines food restaurant in Manila, located in the heart of the city next to University of Santo Tomas. Because it’s next to a major university, it attracts quite a crowd of hungry students everyday, along with anyone else passing by and ready to eat a delicious Filipino food meal and some of the best banana egg rolls (turon) you’ll ever try.

Mang Tootz Food House is a carinderia, a local style eatery, and to eat you go up to the front of the restaurant and pick and choose the different dishes you want to try. I got a plate of Bicol express, inihaw na liempo, sisig, chicken kebab, ginataang langka, and finally, their banana rhuma, which is what they call their version of banana egg rolls, or banana lumpia, or turon.

Out of the Filipino dishes I ordered, the Bicol express, a Filipino stew of pork with coconut milk and chilies, and the ginataang langka, a jackfruit stew with coconut milk, were my favorite dishes of the meal. The chicken kebab wasn’t my favorite dish as it was covered in a mayonnaise tasting sauce.

Banana-rhuma (turon) – Ok finally, when you eat at Mang Tootz Food House, the one sure thing you have to order is their banana rhuma. These little banana egg rolls are amazing, and you’ll see them at the front of the restaurant being made and deep friend. Many people come by in the afternoon and order only the banana egg rolls, just as a snack to go. They take a lumpia wrapper, place a piece of banana on the inside, wrap it up, and deep fry it in a wok to a crispy golden crunch. The banana egg rolls are then stir fried with a caramel like mixture,and sprinkled with sesame seeds. I’m not a big sweets lover, but when Filipino turon are hot and fresh, they are truly amazing, and these were the best I’ve ever tried.

Total price for meal – 365 PHP ($7.34)

  1. Mark has never been here in cagayan de oro making some food vlog on cdo foods and street food… i wish he could come here and taste the food of cdo…

  2. In philippines we pick just 1 dish like 1 bicol express and 1 rice and you just pick all up hahaha i guess you’ll have to remove ur belt now ? for the first time

  3. Manila is kinda look different compare to KL…the street look like.. a bit poor. but i dont know if there are some other part of manila that look impressive. btw nice food tour!

  4. Go back the the Philippines sometime soon Mark and Ying!

    Btw a trick I learned, that works well, is to hold a fork underneath the calamansi or lime and it keeps all or most of the seeds from popping out. I always wince when you squeeze seeds all over the food then dig in. You don't need that much fiber…

    Take care

  5. I see that it's not even the authentic bicol express there… What more if you can eat the real bicol express in Bicol? ?

I WISH I HAD BEEN BORN WITH A BIBLE UNDER MY HAND, IT WAS NOT TILL MY 30S THAT I GOT SAVED HAVING GROWN UP AMONGST THE HEATHEN, NOW IN MY 40S I STRUGGLE EVERY DAY TO FIND TIME TO SERVE THE LORD, MY LIFE MEANS NOTHING TO ME OTHER THAN TO SERVE THE KINGDOM OF HEAVEN, NO MERCY FOR YOU SON OF BELIAL! YOU HAVE NO PLACE AMONG US!
